New Video: Jesse James ‘My Cowboy’

This southern girl can sing!

Check out the ever-so-sultry Jesse James newest music video for her latest single ‘My Cowboy’ –

Jesse James had better watch out. She may be the sexy newcomer to the country music scene, but she’d better not get too comfortable because there’s about to be a new girl in town from Diddy’s Bad Boy label, Liz Davis.

Diddy Has Spoken! Liz Davis Wins MTV’s Starmaker Competition

Liz Davis has won MTV’s Starmaker!

We knew if from the moment we were first introduced to the country singer on Diddy’s latest reality talent competition.

Week after week, Liz has taken the direction of the judges to improve her natural born talent. Last night, she emerged as a star.

Davis found out she had won the competition just like the rest of us last night, on television. The pre-taped series filmed three alternate endings in order to keep the winner a secret until the finale aired on MTV.

She never once doubted herself as an artist at any point in the competition. She was country from the get go and performed Gretchen Wilson’s ‘Redneck Woman’ on the finale, which happened to be the song that initially secured her spot on the show.

Liz Davis has made history by becoming the first country artist signed to Diddy’s Bad Boy label.

It’s time for someone to give Carrie Underwood a run for her money!

New Video: Orianthi ‘According To You’

Rising pop star and guitar prodigy, Orianthi, has just released her debut single ‘According To You’ and we’ve got the music video for you to check out.

Artist To Watch: Orianthi

Check out this chick from down under!

Orianthi, a 24 year old Australian guitar prodigy, has already shared the stage with some of the biggest names in the music business and now it’s her turn to step into the spotlight with the upcoming release of her debut album Believe.

She has performed with Santana, Carrie Underwood, and Steve Vai, but nothing compares to being handpicked by the King of Pop himself, Michael Jackson, to play lead guitar for what would have been his This Is It tour.

Her debut single ‘According To You’ is a feisty, upbeat pop-rock anthem that will have you singing along as soon as you hit the chorus. It’s catchy as hell! I’m sure there are a few female pop stars who wish this could have been their single.

Check out ‘According To You’ –
